Hello world! This morning I find myself in traffic court for a speeding ticket I got back in January. Yes January! My original court date was March 3rd for which I got an extension online. Next court date was May 4th. I tried to get another extension then, but wasn’t allowed and told I had to see the judge… On August 13th!!! I missed my court date yesterday so I’m here as a walk-in waiting to ask the judge for an extension that I wanted back on the 4th of May.
I honestly cannot pay this ticket. Everytime I think about it, my hand cramps up and my wallet becomes invisible and difficult to find. This is bullsh*t! How can a cop write on my ticket that I’m going 50mph in a 35mph zone and not have the radar on (didn’t write it on the ticket). It’s a matter of principle.
The people here are 99.1% Latino. The dumb sh*t you hear here is just absurd. I am listening to people compare crimes and/or violations which they’ve committed timew after time. And it’s not like they’re being discreet about it, they’re f*cken loud! Some of these guys are saying (loudly) that they have 3, 4 or 5 warrants like it was stock in a booming company. I’ve never heard such stupidity. It’s like they’re proud. One guy actually looks like he’s ready to be taken away. He has tattos on his head, neck and arms. What’s he gonna say when he gets in “Not Guilty?”. Some people are just born to be taken away. Sad but true.
